10 Cedis Manpack; gilt

Ghana introduced the cedi in 1965 as part of Kwame Nkrumah's push to break from the colonial-era pound system, though the currency endured repeated redenominations — most dramatically in 2007, when 10,000 old cedis became 1 new cedi. The "Manpack" designation refers to a portable military radio transceiver historically issued to Ghanaian infantry units, a subject choice that sits outside the usual thematic territory of African commemorative issues.

At 62.2 grams, this is a two-troy-ounce format — a weight tier increasingly favored by smaller sovereign mints targeting the stacking market without competing directly against standard one-ounce bullion programs.
